The grave we dedicated last week

This week has been pretty crazy.First we went and had a family home evening
with a lady named Morena. Morena is basically the grandma of all of the
missionaries.She is super funny.During the family home evening we talked
about patience and we showed that video of the kids eating the marshmallows.It was really good. After we were done with
the family home evening, Morena made us some cake and she made a ton of it.

We dedicated a grave a couple of
days ago.The grave is of a recent
convert’s brother. The family is really sad about what happened to him.He died from a car accident and they all
visit him every month. That is actually how she found the missionaries and got
baptized. The graveyards in South America are very different.The caskets are stacked up on top of each
other and the middle of the grave yard is very open. It is very different than
the states and also the caskets are not in the ground; they are above.

We have been working with an
investigator and her name is Maria.She
is awesome.We had our first lesson a
week or so ago and we told her to pray about our message and the Book of Mormon
and she did.The next day we talked with
her and she received an answer to her prayers. I know that she knows the Book
of Mormon is true, she knows the rests of the gospel is true as well.We schedule her date of baptism on the 6th of
February.

So this week has been pretty great
for me.Well I hope you all have a great
week, Ciao.
